Scala Int compareTo() method with example

The compareTo() method is utilized to returns 0 if the first integer value is equal to the second integer value, 1 if the first one is greater than the second one and finally -1 if the first one is less than the second one.

Method Definition: (First_Integer_Value).compareTo(Second_Integer_Value) 
Return Type: It returns 0 if the first integer value is equal to the second integer value, 1 if the first one is greater than the second one and finally -1 if the first one is less than the second one.

Example #1:

Scala

// Scala program of Int compareTo()
// method

// Creating object
object GfG
{

    // Main method
    def main(args:Array[String])
    {

        // Creating first Int number
        val m1 = 3

        // Applying compareTo method
        val result = m1.compareTo(3)

        // Displays output
        println(result)

    }
}

Output:

0

Example #2:

Scala

// Scala program of Int compareTo()
// method

// Creating object
object GfG
{

    // Main method
    def main(args:Array[String])
    {

        // Creating first Int number
        val m1 = 3

        // Applying compareTo method
        val result = m1.compareTo(2)

        // Displays output
        println(result)

    }
}

Output:

1

Example #3:

Scala

// Scala program of Int compareTo()
// method

// Creating object
object GfG
{

    // Main method
    def main(args:Array[String])
    {

        // Creating first Int number
        val m1 = 3

        // Applying compareTo method
        val result = m1.compareTo(9)

        // Displays output
        println(result)

    }
}

Output:

-1
